Located in Redditch, Worcestershire, this project falls within the construction industry category. The tender was published on 18th March 2021 and required submissions to be completed by 1st April 2021. The awarded contract, valued at £96,850, commenced on 15th June 2021 and is scheduled to conclude by 31st March 2022. The procurement method was an accelerated open procedure due to urgency following earlier publication issues. This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) engaged in construction and carpentry services. Businesses specialising in timber frame construction or carpentry would find themselves well-suited to compete for this contract, given its focus on sustainable building practices aimed at creating virtually plastic-free homes. Companies positioned to handle subcontract packages within this niche could leverage this project to expand their portfolio and strengthen relationships within the public sector. ## Notice This is a subcontracts package to carry out both the Timber Frame Erection and Carpentry for the CHARM virtually plastic free homes in Redditch, Worcestershire. The main tender information is in the Invitation to Tender document (supplied in PDF and Word versions in Accord Website - https://accordgroup.org.uk/about/supply-to-us/charm). All Tender documents need to be with the tender return envelope (purple), see Invitation to Tender Document for more information Tenders or requests to participate must be submitted to the following address: Accord Housing Association 178 Birmingham Road West Bromwich B70 6QG Additional information: Accelerated Open Procedure Justification: This procurement procedure is an accelerated open procedure as there is urgency in publicity of this tender. This is because we previously failed to publish this on Contracts Finder and only using Find a Tender Service. Therefore, we had to re-tender this work package and if we were to go through the standard procedure, it would lead to loss of finance due to interest cost on the site and on costs associated with the building site set up. In addition the grant programme has a number of grant milestones that the additional delay would put at a risk the spending of the EU public funding. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d06c758c-b27c-4ba2-96c7-8321b6583d70 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - Accelerated Open Procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Jun 2021 | | Submission deadline | 1 Apr 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 3 Jun 2021 | | Contract period | 14 Jun 2021 - 31 Mar 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £67,863 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £96,850 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ACCORD HOUSING ASSOCIATION LTD | | Locality | WEST BROMWICH | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B70 6QG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG37 Sandwell | | Local authority | Sandwell | | Electoral ward | West Bromwich Central | | Westminster constituency | West Bromwich | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | FISHER CARPENTRY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45000000 - Construction work ## Release History - 16 Jun 2021 at 11:18 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d06c758c-b27c-4ba2-96c7-8321b6583d70 - 18 Mar 2021 at 10:39 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/96ec8bf6-db07-41cf-82b7-6b2e4262a66f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d06c758c-b27c-4ba2-96c7-8321b6583d70 16th June 2021 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/96ec8bf6-db07-41cf-82b7-6b2e4262a66f 18th March 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/27dbb593-457d-4914-90cc-33faa29ffdfb - https://accordgroup.org.uk/about/supply-to-us/charm/sc3-timber-frame-erection-and-carpentry All drawings and further information on this procurement is on Accord website. ## Notice URLs - https://accordgroup.org.uk/ - https://accordgroup.org.uk/about/supply-to-us/charm ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
